Import Tips
• Verify yarn number using HTS formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) after removing sizing to confirm 43-68 range for accurate classification
• Provide lab test reports certifying ≥85% cotton content and weight ≤200 g/m² to avoid reclassification
• Ensure printing is on one side only if applicable; multi-side prints may shift to other subheadings
